Learning from each other’s cultures - and a wedding proposal!

If you were looking to learn about another culture, taste some fine food, or to see some interesting performances, Atlas was the place to be last Wednesday. Students and staff from countries around the world showed ‘something’ from their country of origin during the Connect with my Culture event. Our video reporter was present and happened to capture a marriage proposal with his camera.

Sani Fejzagic interrupted a dance to sink on his knees in front of his unsuspecting girlfriend Anela Donko. They know each other from the Student Sports Center; she is a dancer and a longtime member of the Hip Hop group, and he makes video reports. They have been together for three years and he wanted to propose during the performance because the Hip Hop group means a lot to her.

Our reporter Mathias Verheijden captured the romantic moment with his camera and made a video impression of the event.

See his video below.
